Preparation

For the cake:

Step 1: For each portion, separate them into different colours of your choice.

Step 2: If the dough is too sticky, add more coconut flour and if the consistency becomes too thick, add a little more IMO syrup.

Step 3: Preheat the oven to 160 degrees.

Step 4: Cover your baking tray with a sheet of baking paper. Take the macaroon dough and create small balls in your hand. Then put them flat on the baking tray.
